How Do I Prepare for an X-ray?
Plain x-rays of the chest, abdomen, arms, legs and spine require
no preparation and generally take only a few minutes to complete.
However, street clothes and jewellery must be removed from the
area of interest as they can interfere and cover the anatomy.
Please report to the Admitting Department 30 minutes prior to your
scheduled appointment time.
Choanogram - This is used to demonstrate congenital
(birth defects) of the nasopharynx (back of the nose) by having
the patient sniff a small amount of barium into each nostril.
This is seen using x-rays.
- Time to perform - 30 minutes
- Preparation - There is no preparation for
this procedure.
